A Good Home Market.

Ignorant and timid votes have robbed
the tariff of much of its usefulness, and
in the laundering notion that it was
good to reduce taxation Congressman
have prostra<ed great industries, like
those Of the woOl-grower and the fax
producer. 1t is good to see that there
are many farmers who comprehend
the mischief done by such pretended
reformers. and yet there are millions
who do not know that the Congress
men Of their own party. by An almost
unanimous vote. cut down the duty on
wool. Missionary work is needed. and
the farmers who know the truth must
set out rs missionaries. To find the
benighted who need them they have
not to go far from home. In every
club. association or grange, where
tillers of the soil assemble for the dis
cussion of their interests. the tariff
question should be discussed at once
end in earnest, until every member
has been taught that . good home
market is more necessary than good
crop.-N !. Tribune.

Ca Draw . Wholesome L<asoa.
Yesterday forenoon As two men who
had lived neighbor to each other on
High street for year and walked down
town together a hundred times. met on
GriswOld street, one of them re-
marked:
..Say, Green. drop into the bank with
me for a minute. I want to be ident-
flied"
Certainly. certainly" replied Green.
and they entered the bank and walked
to the teller's window.
"You identify this man as Baker. do
yon?"
Baker? Baker? Yes. 1 believe that
is his name"
do you know it to be?''
MOO, but I've heard it was. He
lives next door to me-"

"He's got wife. anyhow, and I see
some children around"
What does he do?''
Lets see. He's got an Office of some
sort down town here, but l can't say
what he does"
'Will you positively identity him as
Baker?''
'.Why-well-no. guess not. think
he is, but he may be Barker, or Bark

Agriculture outstripping Population.

Wheat production has increased in
this country faster than population.
Within five miles of the new railroads
built since 1880. there are now as many
acres of land as the whole area of inn
proved land in farms IN all the United
States according to the census of that
year. If railroads double the land
available for farming, why should not
farm products grow cheaper. and why
should they not continue to grow dis
astrously cheaper in the United States
until agriculture is pauperized and de-
graded? Let manufacturing continue
to grow faster than agriculture. and
tax all imports of staple agricultural
products, and the prices of farm prod
ucts will be maintained and the farmer
will thrive. Let agriculture increase
faster than industry, and no power
under heaven can stay its downward
coursc.-N. y Tribune.

Cement Made From Stag.

Anew method of making cement from
blast-furnaee Stag has been recently
described. While the Stag is in q
molten condition it is run into water
and thereby reduced to state Of fine
powder. After being ground and
screened. this powdered Stag has added
to it > certain proportion Of slaked
lime. The mixture is next placed in !.
machine which thoroughly incorporates
its particles. This machine consists Of
a revolving drum containing . number
Of metal balls, ard it is the constant
crushing action Of these balls which re-
duces the mixture submitted to them
to state of the finest possible division.
It is claimed that this thorough mixing
gives 70 the cement tensile strength
almost double that of cement prepared
without the help of the machine.-N

Black braiding ON white cloth vests
and panels is not new, but is still worn
generally upon house dresses for those
in mourning.
Ladies' beginning to lay aside mourn
ing wear grey cashmere combined with
white corded silk and trimmed with
steel passementerie.
There is a tendency to return to some
old-fashioned colors under new names.
A bright blue shade is called Jubilee
blue, in honor of the English Queen.
A light pink that is being brought
out in velvets to combine with black
lace is much like the old Magenta
shades and is called Charles \. pink.
Anemone is q new reddish purple,
much prettier than the heliotrope now
worn.
India silks are more popular than
French foulartls. owing to their supe-
rior durability. White India silks.
with all-over patterns of graceful lines
in black, blue, brown or. scarlet. will
make pretty summer dresses, and there
are many Vatican and Pompadour de-
signs of roses and pinks in pale and
charming colors. Lace is no longer
used in profusion to trim these light
silks, velvet having superseded it.
SIrahs with large. wide diagonal
twills are shown in all solid eolors and
in many plaids, some of the prettiest
being dark blue crossed with pink or
lighter blue; Suede, with bars of rose
and green, and green grounds barred
with pink. These are TO be made up
in entire dresses. not combinations,
with velvet collar. vest and cuffs; the
skirts bOrlered with velvet. or with
velvet laid in between the plaits.
The sleasy diagonal woods Of light
quality are shown in all dark colors
with white lines and bars, like that
which had such immense popularity
last summer. However. the method of
making them up will be quite different.
the kilt plaits and smooth short lavan-
deuse drapery being replaced by plain
skirts and voluminous Grecian Ora
perry. The sailor hats almost invaria-
bly, worn with these suits last year will
be replaced by the brimless turban.
Drab and tan shades, brown and
gray are largely represented in what is
called covert cloth for short covert
coats to be worn with suits of wool Of
lighter colors, or as an occasional wrap
to go with almost any dress. There
are also loosely woven English cloths
